In this episode of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the GRC Technology Galaxy, Michael Rasmussen sits down with Workiva to explore what happens when GRC, ESG, and finance finally converge on a single platform. The conversation digs into what Workiva brings to the GRC landscape, where it’s best of breed, and why the interconnectedness of governance, risk, and compliance is critical to making ESG real rather than rhetorical.
We also look at the role of AI, including the rise of agentic AI, and what new capabilities may soon reshape how organizations manage reporting, controls, and disclosures. The discussion ranges from the practical (how interconnected workflows replace silos) to the forward-looking (how AI could transform assurance, accuracy, and speed).
This episode charts Workiva’s place in the galaxy as a platform tackling today’s compliance and reporting complexity, while pointing toward a future where GRC and ESG operate as one interconnected system.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
